One Month Only
Kate J. Blake - 2020
I worked too hard to get where I am now, so I don’t need any distractions, especially the one called LOVE. Don't get me wrong, I love and enjoy sex, but all I need to do to have a fuck is to show a woman my Amex Black Card and let her hear my Italian accent and here we go: a one-night stand guaranteed. Everything worked just fine for me until a chance meeting with her —Angelica Sorreno — when she came back into my life. She is like a strong, terrifying tsunami that blows everything in its way. She asked me for help and I agreed, but only because we were friends, and not because I used to have feelings for her. It’s just that... I’ve made a mistake, a huge one: I’ve tasted her and she happened to have the most delicious pussy I've ever tried. Now I don’t think I can let her go that easily.
